Cancer continues to pose a major threat in today’s society and requires a ton of money for treatment, which not everyone can afford. The disease not only affects the lives of the victims but also takes a toll on their loved ones, both physically and mentally. This is where the NGOs and other possible communities step in to help the needy, by providing the right financial aid. For that, they look out for celebrities, investors, and people wanting to donate to a good cause. DrLupo has become the prime example of this as he hosted a massive stream for St. Jude, a children’s research hospital.

DrLupo is one of the well-known steamers of the esports industry. He rose to success alongside Ninja and TimeTheTatman when the trio entertained millions with Fortnite content. Since then, fans have been adoring Doc for his versatile personality and supporting him for his good work.
